"We were asked to beta test a new modification for the Solton Programmer 24 - expanding the drum section from a single kit to 32 vintage drum machines. It adds the classics like the three Linn Drum machines, the Roland TR-808, TR-909, Roland CR78, Korg Mini Pops 7 as well as lesser known machines like the Elka Drummer One, Elka Drum Star 80, EKO Ritmo 20, Siel MDP40, Wersimatic 24, CRB Computer drums and many more 🤩 The additional 31 drum kits will perform just like the original Solton Programmer 24 drum section.
This is a total game changer for more than the obvious reasons - the Solton Programmer 24 has a sequencer, 8 separate drum volume sliders and 8 audio outputs as well as trigger capabilities for the individual drum sounds. It also sends clock and has Midi in/out/thru so it can be easily incorporated to whatever you got cooking with other machines.
It’s a non-invasive modification and fully reversible - no soldering - no drilling holes anywhere - it's installed by simply removing the four original drums eproms inside and hooking up a small additional board in place of two of them.
The modificationis divided in 4 memory banks of 4 drum kits each - you program the banks to your preference - this way you can quickly switch between the drum kits you use the most - or you can of course toggle through all the 32 drum kits sequentially. Programming the memory banks is easy and sll the instructions you need are provided on Reverb :
The Solton Programmers drum section can accomodate 13 drum sounds per kit. Some of the drum machines included featured have considerably less sounds and in those cases Andrea, the inventor and seller of the drum chip, has added more drum sounds in the same realm as the drum machine in question. Due to the architecture of the Solton Programmer 24 the sample rate is 8 bit PCM 22500 Hz which sounds low but is definitely sufficient to maintain character and punchiness - I think it sounds damn good. This video was made a few months ago and features a trial version that's now been upgraded - clips and smaller issues sometimes heard in the video have been ironed out and fixed on the version that's available for purchase.
Here's the complete list of featured drum machines

"Flagship synth of Vermona.. incredible range of tones and very limited (only 222 made). It's in really nice condition, only a scratch on the back panel near the screw (see some of the last photos). Still works and sounds great!"

"This rare and stunningly gorgeous instrument is a limited edition (#211 out of 222) Vermona '14 Analogsynthesizer, hand-made in Germany by the venerable boutique company Vermona.
The '14 is extremely fun to play and it sounds absolutely beautiful. The build quality is unparalleled. I have never owned something that was built so lovingly. The blue finish with wood cheeks looks incredible in person and the encoders are rock solid and smooth as velvet.
It will come with its original box, dust cover, sustain pedal, power supply, and excellent user guide. I will take extreme care in packing and shipping it safely to you."

1. O Z Hall: Zebra Synth
Dive into the enthralling world of synthesizers and witness O Z Hall's outstanding entry, "Zebra Synth", in the Synthesizers.com Composition Contest. Crafted with unparalleled precision and technique, this remarkable composition combines an array of captivating sounds that will take you on a breathtaking sonic journey.
Hall masterfully utilizes three distinctive patches in "Zebra Synth" to create an immersive soundscape. The first patch features a drone made using a Q106A oscillator, which is meticulously processed by a wave folder. Another oscillator, intertwined with linear FM from the wavefolder output, results in a fascinating "clang tone" that is beautifully amplified by a digital reverb.
In the second patch, a sequenced voice is artfully produced by employing two re-paneled Q106 oscillators. One output is channeled into the input of the linear FM, which subsequently provides intriguing timbral variations. The Q119A sequencer's 3rd row masterfully controls a Ratchet effect, adding even further depth to the composition. An expertly-applied digital delay effect enriches the output of this patch.
Lastly, the lead voice is ingeniously designed using the Q169 Dual Oscillator with Pulse Width modulation. O Z Hall skillfully manipulates the 24db/oct low pass filter in real-time to deliver an electrifying performance. The extended digital delay effect ties the entire sonic experience together. O Z Hall's "Zebra Synth" draws its arsenal of modular synthesis tools from the Synthesizers.com catalog, including Q106, Q106A, Q119A, Q171, Q148, Q127, Q169, Q168, Q167, Q114, Q174, and Q175A modules. The creative process has been meticulously executed, showcasing how these modules can be combined to engineer a rich and dynamic sound adventure.

"This item has been carefully examined and is covered by Kraft Music's 45-Day guarantee but original manufacturer's warranty does not apply. It may show signs of use and handling but is guaranteed to function as new. Take advantage of this great deal from Kraft Music today!
With the completion of the '14 Analogsynthesizer, a long-fostered Vermona dream comes true: the design and realization of an uncompromising synthesizer for instrumentalists.
Marriage of ergonomics and sound
For Vermona, 'expressive play' requires a balanced relationship between performance virtuosity and sound design. In the '14 Analogsynthesizer, these factors come together as equals: keyboard, pitch and modulation wheels are incomplete without the other controls and switches on the panel, which offer direct access to each individual sound-shaping parameter of the synthesis engine.
The '14 Analogsynthesizer is perfectly suited for distinctive solo and bass sounds, including dynamic and subtle sonic variations that are completely under your control at any time."

"Purchased new a few months ago, it's brilliant but surprise root canals are expensive as it turns out.
#212 of 222, comes with original box, manual, cover, I think there's a microfiber wiping cloth in the sealed bag, unused foot pedal and IEC power cable."
